POSTAGE FREE. 

THE NEW YORK LEDGER 

FOR THE YEAR 1875- 

The G-reat Family Paper. 

IT PA YS THE HIGHEST AND GETS THE BEST. 



Our best and most popular writers— whose placea 
could not, in our opinion, be supplied by any others 
on the American Continent— will continue to write, 
most of them exclusively, for the Ledger. 

We have also made arrangements with eminent 
new writers, 

We believe that hundreds of thousands of young 
men and women, through the attractive and entertain- 
ing matter in the Ledger* have formed a taste for reading 
which has now become fixed, and will remain with 
them a source of happiness and improvement, through 
lite. Our old readers will bear U6 witness that the 
Ledger has always been better at performing than 
promising. 

The Ledger is always full of life and spirit; and a 
person once accustomed to reading it finds it too 
pleasant a companion to willingly part with it. 

It contains the purest, sweetest and most delightful 
stories, striking narratives, and instructive biograph- 
ical and historical sketches and has the most popular 
and carefully prepared collection of scientific facts. 

OUR TERMS FOR 1875. 

Single copies,$3 per annum; four copies, $10, which 
is $2.50 a copy; eight copies. $2<>, postage free. The 
party who sends us $20 for a club ot eight copies all 
sent at one time, will be entitled to a copy free 
Postmasters and others who get up clubs, in their re- 
spective towns, can afterward add single copies, at $2.50 
Mo subscription taken for a less period than one year 

When a draft or money order can conveniently be 
sent, it will be preferred, as it will prevent the possi- 
bility of the loss of money by mail. Remember that 
the postage on the Ledger to all parts of the country 
will be paid by us, so that our subscribers will have no 
postage to pay. 

&&" We employ no agents. Address all commu- 
nications to.

It will be noticed that certain names in the various 
crews are marked with an asterisk *; this denotes 
that those men rowed last year in the University crew- 
there are also some marked with a dasher f that de- 
notes that they rowed in some previous freshman crew. 

The following extract may prove of 
service to the public. 

Extract from Agreement. 

between "R A. of A. C" and "S. R. A." 
Article XXL 
The Saratoga Rowing Association, 
guarantee that the rate of transportation 
during Regatta days shall not exceed the 
following, viz. From any part of Sara- 
toga to the Grand Stand, Saratoga Lake 
and return, to remain at the Lake any 
number of hours within one day until 
the race is terminated or a postponement 
announced. Two horse pleasure car- 
nage, without driver, $10. One horse 
pleasure carriage, without driver, $6. 
For Hacks, Barouches, Pleasure Car- 
nages, and like Vehicles, carrying pas- 
sengers from any part of Saratoga to the 
Grand Stand, Saratoga Lake, or return 
$lper passenger. For Stages, 0mni<- 
busses, seated wagons, and other similar 
Conveyances, 50 cents per passenger 
each way. The Saratoga Rowing Asso- 
ciation are to repay the amount of any 
payment above the rates specified. But 



the "S. E. A." are not to be held respon- 
sible for cases where it is proved that 
the extra amount was offered by the 
complainant or any member of the com- 
plainant's party. Any complaint of 
charges oyer these specified rates from 
Saratoga to Saratoga Lake, to be valid 
shall be made at the entrance of the 
Grand Stand Ground. Any complaint 
from Saratoga Lake to Saratoga to be 
valid shall be made to the Committee 
on Grievances within three hours after 
the termination of the day's race, 

Article XXIV. Seer. 1th. 
For the due fulfillment of Article 
XXI the <<S. E, A." give a bond of $5000. 

The drowning of Mr. H. G. Cameron, 
of the Trinity College Crew T , on the 28th 
of May, led to the withdrawal of his 
College from the race. He was 20 years 
old, 5 feet 10 inches in height, 157 lbs. 
in weight and rowed number 2. 

The time of Trinity in 1874 was 18 
m. 23 s. and their position at the finish 
number 7. Their withdrawal would 
have brought Harvard and Yale together 
again had not Hamilton changed from 
13 to 11 from stand. 

The crews are arranged in order 
from the Grand Stand. 

Hamilton and Union are new mem- 
bers of the Association.

It will be noticed tnat Amherst has 
the credit of making the fastest time. 
This race was rowed at Springfield 
down stream, and whence taking all 
things into consideration, Columbia's 
was really the fastest as it was rowed 
in still water. 

The race was rowed on the day 

of July, 1875.
